Swarm of Angels

This article is about the music group Swarm of Angels. For the feature film project, see A Swarm of Angels.

Swarm of Angels is a noise-rock band from Houston, Texas. One of several celebrated Houston Noise Bands of the late 1990's and early 2000's, they were known for their dynamic live shows, and unique blending of melodic tunes, dance party rhythms with blistering noise.

The original lineup was forged as an all-star peace-accord of representatives from competing bands. With the formation of Swarm of Angels, The Fever's Erika Thrasher ended the long standing "Westheimer Street Festival albino-cobra custody" battle with Japanic's Tex Kerschen. Ralf Armin of the Vulgarians joined Matty & Mossy's Matt Frey and Domokos/A Pink Cloud of Rusted Shut in a discrete candle light vigil to usher in a new age of peace and harmony among bands fiercely competing for the #1 slot on the KTRU-FM top 35 charts.

This lineup shifted and mutated, and is sometimes credited with spawning what is now Indian Jewelry.
